As training progresses, Takeru wonders why they can't modify TSF controls to be more streamlined like a videogame, with the ability to execute combo moves and cancel automatic inputs. Yuuko is intrigued by the suggestion and agrees to implement the changes, intending to use Takeru and his friends as test pilots. The next day, Kasumi gives Takeru a picture of a Game Guy portable gaming device, which confuses him since video games don't exist in the current timeline.

Yuuko explains that Sumika was the brain that was being kept in her lab, as she was the only living human prisoner taken by the BETA before she was rescued during the capture of the Yokohama Hive.

However, Sumika is still traumatized from her time in BETA captivity, and always has a nervous breakdown while declaring she will kill all the BETA to take revenge for the alternate Takeru's death. Yuuko explains the importance of getting Sumika ready for combat, as she reveals she deliberately released the BETA that attacked the base during the training exercise that resulted in Marimo's death in order to test the base's readiness.

During the trip, Takeru encounters Isumi and asks her what she would do if there was someone she had feelings for in her squad.

However, the BETA manage to ambush and destroy the squadrons inside the hive and mobilize their full forces, sending the bulk of them towards the Susano-O's firing position. Since they are the only line of defense between the BETA and the Susano-O, the Valkyries prepare an ambush for the BETA vanguard, successfully destroying them from behind before heading out to eliminate the Laser-class BETA in the rear.

However, after the second shot, Sumika inexplicably loses consciousness. Yuuko instructs Takeru to extract Sumika and evacuate her from the island while Isumi tries to manually activate the Susano-O's autopilot, with the contingency plan of demolishing the Susano-O if there is a risk of the BETA capturing it.
